Despite first aid, the other driver, identified as Moore, was declared dead at the scene.

According to court documents, officers smelled alcohol on Wydella’s breath and saw that his eyes were bloodshot and watery. A box of wine that was open and partially emptied was found underneath the passenger seat of Wydella’s car.

Wydella’s blood-alcohol content was determined to be .246.
